Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2003
Cochlear implantation is recognized as a valuable intervention with important implications for the acquisition of speech perception and verbal language in children with severe to profound hearing impairment. Auditory rehabilitation, language intervention, and close coordination between parents, schools, and the implant center are necessary to maximize ...

Publisher Summary A cochlear implant system is an electrical stimulator that discharges electrical current to spiral ganglia, giving rise to action potentials in the auditory nerve fibers. It is also a medical instrument that can measure intracochlear evoked potentials, electrical field potentials generated by the electrodes, and electrode impedance ...

The future of cochlear implantation
Cochlear Implants International, 2003Safety has become an important issue, with the need to minimize the risk of transmitting infection to the cerebrospinal fluid. Hand-made electrode arrays are expensive and slow to make. Machine-made arrays have already been developed in Canada, and comparable techniques will, no doubt, arrive.

Bilateral Cochlear Implantation
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2012Cochlear implantation (CI) is the standard of care for the treatment of children and adults with bilateral severe-to-profound sensorineural hearing loss. Because the ultimate and continuous goal of CI teams is to improve patient performance, a potential method is bilateral CI.

Pediatric cochlear implantation
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2011To summarize the current state of cochlear implantation in children.Hearing loss profoundly impacts a child's ability to communicate and thereby affects educational and psychosocial development. The auditory cortex has sensitive periods during which it is maximally receptive to sound stimulus and consequent development.

History of cochlear implantation
Cochlear Implants International, 2013The evolution of cochlear implantation from early experimentation with electrical stimulation of the ear in the 18th century to the sophisticated multichannel device that we now routinely implant has been remarkable. It is a tribute to the perseverance of a number of dedicated scientists in many disciplines who, in the face of serious, but ultimately ...
